I admit I wasn't following the screaming and yelling about 5.4, so excuse me if this has been answered....
My boss tells me he wants me to start rolling out 5.4. I want to d/l & burn a DVD... but when I looked at a number of mirrors, the .iso is from 1 Oct, while the CD .iso's are from the 14th... yet 5.4 was officially announced the other day.
Am I missing something, or do the mirrors have a pre-release DVD .iso, with no fixes in the last three weeks, or ...?

The dates are likely based on when the ISO was actually created. Therefore, if the ISO was generated on Oct. 1st and no issues were found with it in QA, then the date you are seeing on the mirrors is correct. The ISOs are based on the original 5.4 tree and don't include updates that Red Hat released after the initial release of RHEL 5.4.

But why are the 7-iso set of CD's from two weeks later? Or is it just that folks felt that building those was more important than rebuilding the DVD version?

Looking at the dates for the ISOs on the mirror I maintain, they are all from Oct. 1st or 2nd. Only the torrent files are from two weeks later.

Dates aside, the official Release Notes at http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOS5.4 contains checksums for each of the isos. It seems to me that you should be able to apply those md5 and sha1 sums to the DVD.iso file, no matter the source, and be reasonably comfortable with the result.

Already did all that - I was trying to minimize updates, since we'll be using the DVD for a while....

Have you been looking, or just expecting a DVD to show up in your mailbox?? Go to the CentOS homepage, http://www.centos.org/ . At the top of the page you'll see CentOS Download Information. Click on "CentOS-5 ISOs", then on "x86_64". Many of the mirrors listed have CentOS-5.4-x86_64-bin-DVD.iso available for direct download. All of them have CentOS-5.4-x86_64-bin-DVD.torrent available. Bittorrent is the preferred download method. Right now the torrent has more seeds (398) than downloaders (218), so you'll likely saturate your download bandwidth right away.

There's a couple of mirrors that have it. I looked through several .edu site - I think RIT had one.

The Clarkson mirror also carries the DVDs.

As far as I remember, some subsequent RH updates are rolled-into the CentOS release. Someone more familiar with the build process may clarify that.

You could be right. I didn't think they were but I'm not incredibly familiar with the entire rebuild process.

No, they aren't. This time we pushed the "0day" updates from Red Hat to the 5.3 tree (new kernel and a few other things).
The ISOs have the same software in the same versions as upstrem has, we're not slipstreaming anything into there.
